Edirol FA-101 FireWire Audio Capture Interface

The Edirol FA-101 FireWire Audio Capture Interface gives phenomenal power to the studio musician. It's capable of 24-bit/96kHz digital audio resolution on all 10 channels for pristine multichannel recordings with full duplex monitoring and recording. In addition to 10x10 24-bit/96kHz performance, the FA-101 also offers stereo recording and playback at 24-bit/192kHz for performance at DVD-A and SuperCD quality.The portable musician will love that the FA-101 draws its power completely from the FireWire bus - there is no need for an electrical hookup.ÿAt an event, all of the band's hardware can be routed through the FA-101 to output to monitors, and at the same time the show can be recorded and, during the break, CDs burned to sell on the spot. The Performance DJ will rely on the FA-101's rugged metal chassis to allow him to pound the clubs without worrying about the state of his audio interface. Back at home, the FA-101 will return as the centerpiece to the home studio.Because of the FA-101's ability to supply so many simultaneous inputs, it's perfect for any portable audio application. Portability with no limitations means you'll be able to take the FA-101 to any kind of performance to record multitrack audio.The 2 phantom-powered XLR/TRS combo jacks offer premium mic preamps for incredibly clean recording with studio condenser mics or dynamic stage mics. The back of the FA-101 hosts a number of 1/4" TRS balances inputs and outputs: six inputs and eight outputs in all. The front-mounted S/PDIF optical I/Os transfer audio to and from other digital devices, and the built-in MIDI interface allows a synthesizer or controller keyboard to be connected to the FA-101 for sequencing directly into a software program.
